Does your facility generate waste batteries, light bulbs, mercury-containing equipment, or pesticides? If so, personnel who handle these wastes must be trained to manage them in compliance with the universal waste regulations. Moreover, many states classify additional wastes as universal wastes, such as paint, electronic waste, antifreeze, aerosol cans, and cathode ray tubes (CRTs).
